Touring Inflatable

An Explorer’s Favourite Transportation

The overall balanced glide experience and premium features are what have made Starboard’s Touring paddle boards become the world’s highest-rated by magazines and customers’ favourite worldwide.

The wider nose and squarer tail make the Touring inflatable paddle board more stable, especially for harsh conditions like side chop and moderate wind. Experience the Starboard difference even before entering the water, these lightweight paddleboards feature the trademark Starboard shoulder carry strap which allows you to effortlessly carry it to the water, with both hands-free!

The Rail Edge Technology effectively releases water at the tail and reduces drag by creating a laminar flow behind the board. The Welded Rail Technology mechanically joins the deck and hull, making it a stronger and longer-lasting longer iSUP.

LET’S GO EXPLORING.

WELDED RAIL TECHNOLOGY

Every Starboard inflatable paddle board features welded rails.

The Welded Rail Technology creates a complete airtight, mechanically bonded seam without the risk of glue weakening over time. This makes Starboard inflatable paddle boards stronger and longer lasting.

THE OUTLINE SHAPE

The boards have straight outline and relative narrow midsection, so you can keep the paddle closet to the board. This makes you feel more comfortable and stable while you also track better and glide faster.

ROLL TECHNOLOGY

• Pack the inflatable board together with the pump and paddle into a 30% smaller bag.

• The Roll bag features both roller wheels and hiking straps for travel convenience.

• The Roll Technology is now available only with Zen Single Chamber boards.

TOURING S

If you want a faster sensation, the new Touring S has a slenderer design at 28” width, this is great if you are light or have a good balance.

TOURING L

If you want a more stable and solid feel, carry more gear or are a heavier rider, the new Touring L is your choice

VOLUMINOUS NOSE AND SQUARER TAIL

It helps you pop through chop, carry some gear and increase the boards stability, while the squared tail creates a platform to make fun step back turns.

MULTIPLE CARRY HANDLES

• For the heavy duty explorers to make the transport of the boards easier, especially if they are fully loaded.

• All our Touring boards are equipped with the tail handle and the center carry handle.

• There is an extra handle on the nose on all boards except Wave and Blue Wave

• On all 14’0″ Deluxe boards, have handles on the rails, next to the cargo area, as well as on the nose.

2-IN-1 SHOULDER CARRY STRAP & PADDLE HOLDER

  • Velcro loops to attach your paddle.
  • Easier to carry as the board simply hangs effortlessly on the shoulder and frees up your hand to multi-task, hold your coffee, or phone.
  • When not in use, the strap sits flat on the board so it doesn’t drag in the water.
  • The Zen construction only comes with 2 D-rings. The strap needs to be purchased separately aftermarket.

RAIL EDGE TECHNOLOGY

Creates a sharp edge for the water to release smoothly for optimal glide and speed.

BUNGEE TIE DOWN

  • For storing gear and supplies.

Board weight tolerance: +/- 5%

For every board Starboard plants 3 mangrove trees with Worldview International Foundation.

Each tree absorbs 673kg of CO2 during its first 25 years.

50% of absorption goes towards offsetting this board & 50% is secured as carbon credits to fund livelihood projects in Myanmar.

The average emission from a Starboard board is 100 kg CO2.

By planting 3 trees per board we offset this 10 x over.

1.4 kg of trash is collected per board by starboard pop crews at beaches in Thailand & Myanmar.

Globally, an individual is responsible for 1.4 kg of plastic reaching the ocean every year.

Starboard balances this amount for our customers.
